GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE OCTOBER 2025 — Spiderweb 🕸️

Good morning lovelies & happy Monday! I hope you’re having the most beautiful start to your day. Today, I’m sharing prompt # 4 from Glam Nails Challenge October for 2025: Spiderweb.

Spider’s are probably my least favourite thing, but a good spiderweb nail art look does fit the spooky Halloween vibes.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen InstaDri Top Coat (red bottle) 
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist (purple)
  • Sally Hansen Triple Shine Wavy Blue
  • NailStuff.ca Essentials Raven
  • LA Colors Black Shatter
  • OPI I Cannoli Wear OPI
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Make It N-Ice
  • NailStuff.ca 16mm Liner Brush

So I tried to do a cute black gradient at the tips of my nails, but it went kind of weird so I created a fun textured effect by adding the LA Colors Shatter at the tips as well — which I like even better than my original idea for a gradient. Then I hand drew my spiderwebs on the tips, with a little extra sparkle.

Is it similar to the same design I do every year? Yes.

Do I still love how it turned out? Also yes.

What do you think of this spiderweb design? Do you like how I created my fun textured gradient on my tips? Let me know your thoughts on this design, & don’t forget to check out #glamnailschallengeoct25 on Instagram to see all the other beautiful looks that have been created so far this month.

Happy Monday!

GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE OCTOBER 2025 — Ghost 👻

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! It’s hope your week has been as calm & peaceful as can be.

Today is our third prompt for Glam Nails Challenge October, which is ghost! I do love a good ghost design especially this time of year, so I was excited to give this a go. I wanted to create a ghost look slightly different from ones I’ve done in the past, & I think I managed to create a spooky & fun look. & I’m so in love with how they turned out.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen InstaDri Top Coat (red bottle) 
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist (purple)
  • China Glaze Skyscraper
  • Essence Pastel Ombre Top Coat
  • OPI Alter Ego
  • Icing Store Black
  • Small Dotting Tool (NailsStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio)

So the trick of creating these translucent ghosties is using a really, really shear white polish (or mixing a more opaque white with a clean polish to thin it out.) I Have this Essence Pastel Ombre Top Coat from years, & years ago, & while I’ve never used it for an ombre design, it works perfectly for nail art like this! I also added a bit of OPI Alter Ego for a bit of extra shimmer/glow.

What do you think about this ghostly design? Do you like the spooky sheer effect of the ghosts. I feel like these ones are definitely more on the spooky side, compared to my ghost designs of years past — which I’m loving! Let’s go for all the spooky vibes this October — I am here for it!

Happy Wednesday
